Buell Thunderbolt description

As born 1995 Buell S2 Thunderbolt. Original Black Sapphire Metallic paint with original hand laid fiberglass bodywork, carbon fiber air intake cover and carbon fiber belt guard. Stock First production year S2's are getting harder and harder to find so if you're looking for a very nice original S2 Thunderbolt with low, low miles as a future collectable this is your bike ! All stock ! Serial number is in the Erik Buell Signature Series range but I don't have any of the original paperwork or the cover plate.

Low, low 8,192 miles.  Everything works as it should, original Marchesini wheels with what could be the original Dunlop Sportmax tires.  Should plan on a new set of tires. I've tried to post pictures of all areas of this classic but let me know if you'd like any additional pictures.  

1995 was the first year of Buell production under Harley-Davidson ownership so there are a lot of parts on this bike that are interchangeable with a 1200 cc Sportster including most of the maintenance items on the engine, transmission and clutch. Many aftermarket suppliers as well so no issues with getting parts.  There is also an active online community, search on badweatherbikers, this site has every question you have already answered. Lots of suggestions for parts suppliers too.

Bike starts up, runs and rides excellent.  Body work has some chips and scratches consistent with a 21 year old motorcycle that's been ridden.  Muffler showing some surface corrosion but is very solid.  All the electronic accessories work as expected. I have a YouTube video posted of the bike running search on "1995 Buell S2 for sale SW Chicago Area July 2016". Sale includes tank bra and Buell tank bag shown on bike in video, nothing else is included.

This classic and collectable Buell is being sold AS-IS with NO Warranty, written or implied.  I'm happy to assist with shipping, including overseas, but buyer is responsible for all packaging, shipping and transport costs. Feel free to let me know any questions you may have.  

Thanks for Looking and good luck in the auction !

Buell Assets Liquidation About to Begin

Mon, 25 Jan 2010

In what is sure to be a painfully long and tortuous process for the former Buell Motorcycle Company (from Eric down to the graveyard shift janitor), the final act of its disassembly will be handled by Grand Rapids, Michigan – based Liquid Asset Partners. In a release from Liquid Assets, the company states the “liquidation sale will start January 28th and run everyday for 30 days until everything is sold. Regardless of cost or loss, millions of dollars worth of equipment and tools will be sold directly on the factory floor.” But don’t think this is just a sell-off of the last few skeletal remains of bikes.
